ive programmed one of the three buttons on the rear view mirror of my 2008 x5 (havent done the others yet). it doesnt have much range on it. the x5 has to be within just a few feet of the door in order for the x5 button to open the door. is this typical if not is there a way to improve the range so that i can push the button and be several car lengths away from the door thanks
